Ferenc Puskas
83 goals in 84 games fort Hungary.
512 goals in 528 games for Real Madrid. (including 4 in a European cup final win)
357 goals in 354 games for Kispest Honved.
Olympic gold medal.
5 Hungarian league medals
5 Spanish league medals
Spanish Cup medal

Also was a main figure in two of World footballs' most historical sides, The Mighty Magyars (Hungarian national side) and the legendary all conquering Real Marid of the late 50's.

Di stefano is probably the one most people talk about when they talk about Madrid. But often, Puskas is voted higher than him with regards his playing ability, and that in itself must make him a truelly great player. I saw a poll recently somewhere, and Puskas came in 4th behind Pele, Maradonna and Cruyff leaving the likes of Best, Di Stefano and Beckenbauer miles behind.
Anyway, i hope the footballing world pays its respects over the weekend.

Di Stefano did wear the # 23 shirt as well, I remember this because of the fuss made when Beckham could not have #7 (due to Raul) and he took 23.hubys number 1 fan wrote:heard of di stefano used to wear the number 11 of real madrid and present micheal owen with his real shirt when owen signed as he was wearing the number 11 shirt
He (Di Stefano) presented Owen with the shirt because he's an honory president of the club etc.
